Had he ever suspected it before? Miss Trotter waited only until they had well preceded her, and then took a shorter cut home. She was quite prepared that evening for an interview which Mr. Bilson requested. She found him awkward and embarrassed in her cool, self-possessed presence.
Theresa Bilson, setting out the next morning in solitary state, contrived to maintain the adopted attitude until the front gates were safely passed. Then she relaxed and looked out of the brougham windows with a fussy brightness more consonant to the joys of impending union with the Miss Minetts and the day's impending trip.
"Father, you must use all effort that the sentence be so pronounced, if the King's Grace remit it not." "The King's Grace remitteth never sentence on heretics," said Bilson, with another of his disagreeable smiles. "He is much too true and faithful son of Holy Church therefor. And as to my poor efforts, my Lord "
Your Lordship witteth that she will be examined to-morrow afore the council, and by them sentenced." "You will endeavour yourself, reverend father, that the sentence be made as light as may be." "My Lord, we have but one sentence for heretics," said Abbot Bilson, with a smile which showed all his teeth, like a wild beast. "The Act regarding them was yestermorn sceptred by the King's Grace."
She had taken to lunching out too; when he asked Bilson if her mistress had been in to lunch, as often as not she would answer: "No, sir." He strongly disapproved of her gadding about by herself, and told her so. But she took no notice. There was something that angered, amazed, yet almost amused him about the calm way in which she disregarded his wishes.
Cooper and I knew how it would be well enough when Miss Bilson engaged Lizzie Trant and Mr. Hordle said the same. But it wasn't one atom of use for us to speak. The Miss Minetts recommended the girl so there was the finish of it. And that's at the bottom of your being kept waiting the best part of a hour for your tea like this, Miss."
They are supported moreover by Dekker and Ford's play, The Witch of Edmonton, which appeared within a year. Goodcole refers to the "ballets" written about this case. The Boy of Bilson: or A True Discovery of the Late Notorious Impostures of Certaine Romish Priests in their pretended Exorcisme, or expulsion of the Divell out of a young Boy, named William Perry.... London, 1622.
So you must depart, my dear Miss Bilson, and for everyone's sake, the sooner the better. There can be no further discussion of the matter. Pray accept the fact that our interview is closed." But Theresa, now sensible that her chance was in act of being finally ravished away from her, fell or rose perhaps more truly the latter into an extraordinary sincerity and primitiveness of emotion.
"You can, and you shall," wrathfully answered Lord Marnell, and, not to prolong the contest, walked rapidly away. Abbot Bilson stood looking after him, with an expression on his face not unlike that which a triumphant demon might be supposed to exhibit. Henry had previously conspired against the King three times, and had even plotted the death of his own father.
Hearing the brougham at last drive up, Theresa Bilson felt rapturously fluttered. Her course had been notably empty of situations and of adventure; drama, as in the case of so many ladies of her profession the pages of fiction notwithstanding conspicuously cold-shouldering and giving her the go-by.
